Our story

Discover Alteam's journey—how our passion for impact and commitment to empowering founders has shaped our mission and values

The beginning: a vision to create impact

Yoann and Josh met with a shared goal of launching YJCollective, an impact-driven freelance collective. They teamed up with a designer and app engineer freelancers and quickly secured their first project with Glide Utilities, helping students reduce energy costs. This successful collaboration marked the start of a journey focused on driving meaningful change through innovative partnerships.

Growing the collective: tackling startup challenges

As the collective grew to a dozen freelancers, we uncovered key challenges faced by startups—lack of senior expertise, trouble hiring flexible talent, and struggles with building the right product. At the same time, we helped many professionals transition into fractional consulting and part-time freelancing, offering a solution to both startups and independent talent.

The birth of Alteam: empowering experts and startups

Alteam was born from these experiences, providing freelancers and experts with tools to become fractional leaders, monetise their expertise and find great work. Through Connect, experts can use our mini-site to promote their profiles and receive vetted opportunities by Alteam. At the same time, Scale-our AI-driven talent sourcing- matches talent in teams and automates the deployment of elastic teams in fast-growing startups. Our products are tailor-made for startups and venture builders at different journey stages. We are your innovation and scaling hub.
